Light fixture for 22" T5 HO UVB bulb?

[OlivrTwist]

Hi all,

I was recently given a bearded dragon by my sister when she moved out of state, and I've been researching to make sure his setup and diet are on par with what they should be. They aren't, so I've been overhauling his whole enclosure and changed up his diet.

I read that you can use under-cabinet light fixtures to hold UVB tube bulbs, but I've been having trouble finding an appropriately sized fixture that has a plug in (many are direct wire, which I can do, but would rather not if I can help it). I recently got a GE slimline 23-inch fixture, but the 22" UVB bulb did not fit. If anyone has any suggestions for specific light fixtures (that also have plug-ins), that would be awesome!

Thanks!

your very best bet is something like this with a reflector if you are hanging it, or this

Thanks for your help! I think I'll order the Sunblaster fixture you linked
